PUBLICATIONS

I have an old CD containing my pre-retirement publications that I used to upload them to this tab. I had about 150 research papers (journal articles, book chapters, and conference papers) published over my research career from 1987 to 2010.

A few years ago I read that the average published research paper is read by ONE OTHER PERSON. This made me feel that my research career was largely a huge waste of money and time, and that most research is equally wasted and a huge waste of peoples lives.

So, now I feel I’m doing something far more worthwhile, more valuable, by becoming a globacator (global educator) making YouTube educational lecture videos at graduate (masters and PhD) level in Pure Math, Math Physics and some Computer Theory, as well as e-libraries in these topics plus philosophy, and brain related topics.

In a class room I could teach maybe 20 students, and had to teach much the same material over and over. Now I teach the planet a course once and it remains forever on YouTube (hopefully). This allows me to teach many courses and give the world a far richer, deeper education in my chosen topics. I hope other retired professors (“freeprofs”) will follow my example and put their knowledge for free into YouTube lecture videos rather than having it rot when their brains rot (or burn) after they die.

Research Gate

I kept getting emails from Research Gate (RG) asking me to upload full versions of my research papers on their site. RG says I’ve had about 10,000 views of my papers on their site. So I uploaded all my research papers linked here to them as well. Enjoy!
